New Study Details
Egypt's Anti-Semitism

Los Angeles (JTA) — On the
eve of Egyptian President
Hosni Mubarak's visit to the
United States, the Simon
Wiesenthal Center has
published a study of anti-
Semitism in the Egyptian
press, with an intent to
demonstrate the extent of
anti-Jewish expression in the
government-sanctioned Egyp-
tian media. The 160-page
report, "Israel's Peace Part-
ner — A Survey of Anti-
Semitism in the Egyptian
Press, 1986-1987," covers the
period from January 1986
through October 1987.
The study was completed
prior to the outbreak of
violence in the Gaza Strip
and the West Bank. The
Wiesenthal Center says the
report "does not question
President Mubarak's commit-
ment to peace with Israel,"
but rather reaches "the un-
mistakable conclusion that a
campaign to delegitimize and
inspire hatred toward Jews,
Judaism and the State of
Israel is very much a part of
the Egyptian scene."
The report has been sent to
all members of Congress and
international government
figures.
The study cites several ex-
amples of allegations that the
Holocaust was greatly exag-
gerated. Others suggest
Jewish conspiracies and
Zionist plots against Arabs.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1988

A book review in the
government-owned
Al-
Ahram, for instance, praises
an author "who presents
proof from Israeli books to the
malice of the Jews who wish
to kill all male newborns and-
pregnant women in order to
uproot the Palestinians."
Another report, in Sawt El-
Arab, accuses unnamed
Jewish companies in Europe'
of- exporting to Egypt milk
and other foods affected by
radioactivity, "as part of a
Zionist plot supervised by the
Mossad," Israel's foreign in-
telligence agency. Other
reports claimed foods im-
ported from Israel spread
disease in Egypt.

Cartoons appearing in the
report are replete with tradi-
tional anti-Semitic
caricatures of Jews with big
noses, diabolically large,
pointed ears and Stars of
David on their clothing. But
many of the cartoons carry
anti-Syrian and anti-Iranian
messages, implying that
Israel has secret liaisons with
Syria's President Hafez Assad
and Ayatollah Khomeini of
Iran.
The study also names a new
play, The Star of Mice, in
which an invasion of mice in-
to Egypt following the sign-
ing of the Camp David ac-
cords spreads corruption and
destruction.
